PUF: How does your company view the electric industry's transformation (decarbonization, electrification, digitization), and what's your strategy — technologies, resilience, operational efficiency, customer experience — to succeed in it?
Gil Quiniones: The New York Power Authority (NYPA) views the ongoing electric industry transformation through a necessary long-range lens of helping our customers and the state reach their energy goals. As practical and experienced problem solvers, we understand the realities of climate change.
Guided by Governor Andrew Cuomo's energy policy goals, we are utilizing recent advances in technology. Our strategy is leveraging our expertise to offer solutions to aid in a just transition to a new energy model.
While we recognize that achieving a clean energy economy for New York State will be a challenge, we are already playing a key role in this essential effort. To this end, we are continuing our stewardship of the energy and environmental resources under our care to provide affordable, reliable electricity for our customers.
